Bob,

Note: The "sport handling package" is the same under all 5-liter
Mustangs.

I would suggest you don't go cheap. I've found it's better to spring
for quality shocks like Konis or Bilsteins than it is to buy a lesser
brand.

In this order: subframe connectors, strut-tower brace, and a g-load
brace. They'll make a huge difference!
